<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>One thing that we do here better than anybody else at Prep Girls Hoops is we draw attention to many different players, not just the same 10 kids. I did some digging through the kids who are currently ranked and found some that need to be brought to the forefront as we head toward the postseason. Here are some sophomores that are currently ranked in the top 50 who you need to keep an eye on in February!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["975873"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-697a937f1fd2b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Super impressed with the year this young lady has had. At 6'1” she is a matchup problem because of her versatility. Not only she very strong on the boards, able to rip the rebound and lead the break, she also distributes well and sees the floor, able to dish to a teammate or finish strong at the rim. With her length and size, she's able to control the passing lanes as well defensively. I'm thinking a big summer ahead for her!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["974097"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-697a94447f2af"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Izzy has the ability to score in a quick second, does an excellent job with a quick catch and shoot, ready to shoot when she gets the ball. Defensively she is extremely scrappy, will get after it and force mistakes. I really like her basketball IQ and her court sense which makes her deadly at both ends of the floor. She keeps getting better and better.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1091546"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-697a950c2553c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">She is a crucial part of Mount Notre Dame's incredible success this season. This sophomore plays well above her years, she's polished, she works extremely hard on her off days and she is fine tuned offensively. Can knock down the three, long lanky and athletic she can run the floor and finish at the rim. Defensively she can lock you down and for only a sophomore, she's got a very good court sense. <em>(Featured photo above)</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1202178"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-697a96a3e9281"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kendell is putting up video game type numbers as we close in on the end of the regular season. 27 points 10 boards and five steals per game is about where she's sitting and this girl can do it all. Love her intensity, can shoot from anywhere. She's actually leading scorer in the northwest region and not many people outside of PGH are talking about her. If you don't know her, you better get to know her!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["835244"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-697a98de96583"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Anna is the leader for a team that is 13–0 and probably should've been in my story last week about teams that nobody's talking about. This young lady has taken the area by a storm in her class, averaging 22 points, five assists and six steals per game, she is one of the most precision guards you'll see in the region in her class. Very skilled, very sharp with the ball, and she has her team at top the conference. She's a special kid ready for the next level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
